The "Space Gravity Suit" Idea

Our project is solving the "Astrocize" challenge.

Our solution is an underwear suit which exerts mechanical loads on the astronaut's body through the structural tension of its fiber matrix. This suit behaves as a second skin for the astronaut and helps him eliminate muscular and bone loss and at the same time prevents spine elongation. Also with that suit the astronaut body maintains the positive pressure on the lower part of the body and the neural model of the ground reaction force and, as a result, orthostatic intolerance and gait abnormalities are prevented.


With our Space Gravity Suit astronauts prevent all the above-mentioned problems and minimize the time that is required for their daily exercise. So we do not need to change their training equipment as we save their body just by changing the actual training time and the specific exercises per se. Also with its embodied sensors real data of astronauts body's condition is taken and can be analyzed by NASA Space Station experts in order to give them personalized feedback and propose specific exercises in order to invigorate their body in a more effective way.
